Psalms 42:1-4 New English Translation (NET)

1. As a deer longs for streams of water,so I long for you, O God!

2. I thirst for God,for the living God.I say, “When will I be able to go and appear in God’s presence?”

3. I cannot eat, I weep day and night;all day long they say to me, “Where is your God?”

4. I will remember and weep!For I was once walking along with the great throng to the temple of God,shouting and giving thanks along with the crowd as we celebrated the holy festival.
